The Wheel of Fortune

The most unique and most loved money-saving gimmick at Poor Paul’s is our world famous Wheel of Fortune, where patrons can win freedrafts and pitchers simply by “spinning the wheel.” And the odds are Great; our customers drink 1 out of 6 drafts and pitchers FREE!

Our Happy Hour special from 4PM ’til 7PM, Every Day is a real deal. You spin the wheel for import bottles and depending on where the wheel lands you pay either 50¢, $1.00, $2.00, or $3.00.

Kinda like going to Vegas! (Except without the showgirls, the fancy lights or the guys handing out flyers for hookers.)

It looks almost just like it did when it was built over 30 years ago. By far the best happy hour in town. Spin the wheel for super cheap imports or poor pauls cash towards your next domestic. There are dart boards, pool tables, air hockey, arcade games, a jukebox, trivia, snacks, boiled peanuts, and it’s also smoker friend…

When I was in graduate school, my boyfriend and I went to Poor Paul’s at least every other Friday for $2 Top Shelf drinks, darts, and the occasional NTN trivia death match. After awhile, the bartender with the moustache (a.k.a. “The ‘Mean’ One”) would make our drinks when we walked in. Rock on, Mean One.
In many ways Poor Paul’s is a textbook dive bar: cheap drinks, friendly (and, in some cases, creepy) regulars on stools, colorful locals, scratched up booths, pool tables, free peanuts, tiny ba…
